Oral tests about picture presentation + Last superhero activity in pair work

Hey,

today in "module" I asked you to speak about the picture p. 152 that you had to comment. You need to improve your analysis. I'll be asking other students next time again.

Here is an example of presentation. It's not perfect but it's a rather good one: 

The document is a picture where there are two parts. In the first part, we can see a white family at the bottom who is sitting in a garden. They look surprised and they are looking at the second family who feels happy and impressed. Contrary to the white family, they are standing and clad with their traditional dress. It's a black family.

To me, the scene takes place in the USA and the goal of this picture is to denounce discrimination which treats people differently in society.
The photographer aims at criticizing segregation. In this photo, the separation is represented by the fence which is separating Africans from Americans. Segregation in the 20th century in America was when the Blacks and the Whites couldn't blend.

To my mind, this picture is a good representation of discrimination. Martin Luther King and Rosa Park are the symbols of this conflict. When I see some people wanted to change society and make people aware of these inequalities through paintings, photos, speeches or parades, I'm grateful to them.

The picture attains its objective. I like this photo because it denounces very well the implicit problems of American society in the 20th century.
